Nagios Support Forum

Hi

I have a windows XP machine, and no matter what I do I cannot get NRDS_Win32.vbs to send anything at all.

I can access the NRDP url on the XI server from the host using internet explorer. Its not clear in any documentation I have read what im supposed to do, if anything on this /nrdp page. any explanation might be useful to me, and many others facing similar frustrations.

So, the host has a network path to the nagios server, proved by the ie connection to nagios/nrdp.

in task scheduler, no matter what I try it says "could not start" yet the status is 0x0 which means successful. im running wire shark so I know for a fact there is nothing at all being sent.

When I try to run the vbs script manually by clicking or via Command prompt, again, nothing at all comes out, and theres absolutely no visual feed back on the screen.

The debug log in nrds after the manual run provides little information -:

29/01/2015 23:28:02 base NRDP address locked and loaded : 10.219.105.3/nrdp/?token=7t7gdi4ku5s2&cmd=
29/01/2015 23:28:02 XML being passed to check for updates : 10.219.105.3/nrdp/?token=7t7gdi4ku5s2&cmd=updatenrds&XMLDATA=<?xml version='1.0' ?><configs><config><name>XP</name><version>0</version></config></configs>


I have tried reinstalling, and also pulling down from the nagios gui directly. no dice.

we also have a similar issue on a 2008 server. can anyone provide some useful infor on NRDP Client side process and debugging? im totally stumped and seem unable to investigate further.

Is there any additional switches I can use to provide some visual feedback as to what the heck its doing and struggling with?

Thanks in anticpation

In your XI server under Admin -> NRDS Config Manager do you have a config named exactly "XP"?

Do you get anything if you put the following in a web browser on that windows machine
